Issued late in the war to RAF pilots along with the early tropical beadon flight suits. This multi-pocket bag would have included everything that a pilot would need to survive in tropical climates including compass, medical kit, fishing lines, rations, matches etc. These are actually incredibly hard to find these days, and its a pleasure to get a nice example with a name on the front and potential for research.
Condition
Used but solid condition. Unfortunately when I got this one of the zippers broke, so I've replaced it with a period correct Kynhook (sub-brand of Lightning).
Size
- Measures 21" x 12" without straps.
